signfan Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Any clubs ever experimented with tillers on their groomers? Does anyone know of a company making them to fit on 4 track farm tractors? Given the fluctuating weather we seem to be seeing seems like they might be worth considering. Ski hills have been using them for years. Would have a fleet of tillers re-opened a good chunck of the Ontario trail system last February after the big melt and subsequent freeze up that turned the trails to unrideable ice which essentially shut down snowmobiling in central Ontario mid season? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viperules700 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Tillers won't work on hard pack snow or ice. Designed more for loose snow to setup the base for even cross country ski or snow shoe trails. Ice scratchers on snowmobiles work. Even if we could till the surface a few hot roders would throw the little snow right off the trail again, leaving fragile base even thinner.
